We can’t wait to welcome your and/or your child into the life of the Spirit, Christ and our Church through Baptism and to welcome them into our faith family.
Baptism is the basis of the entire Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism, we are freed from sin and reborn as sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission: “Baptism is the sacrament of regeneration through water in the word.”
If you are seeking Baptism for your child, please contact the parish office for details of the next baptism instruction and subsequent baptism.
If you re an adult seeking Baptism, please see the Right of Christian Initiation (RCIA) page.

The Eucharist is the heart and the summit of the Church’s life, and the mass our highest form of worship.
While Jesus is present in many ways to His Church: in His word, in His Church’s prayer, in the poor, the sick, and the imprisoned, in the sacraments, in the sacrifice of the Mass, and in the person of the minister, he is present most especially in the Eucharistic. At the moment of consecration, though God’s power, Jesus becomes fully present to us, Body, Blood, soul and divinity.
Christ instructed us to do this in His memory. The Eucharist is the memorial of His Passover and it is Christ himself, who, acting through the priest, offers the Eucharistic sacrifice. In receiving Communion, we increase our union with him, our venial sins are forgiven, and we are preserved from grave sins.
First Holy Communion for children happens once a year and preparation is done in the Good Shepherd Catechesis classes.

In Confirmation, Christians receive a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit as once the apostles received on the day of Pentecost.
When we were baptised, we received grace from God – Confirmation rounds off and perfects this grace. It unites us more firmly to Christ, it increases the gifts of the Holy Spirit in us, strengthens our bond with Christ’s Church and it gives us a special strength of the Holy Spirit to spread and defend the faith by word and deed.

RCIA is a process that prospective converts to Catholicism undergo to come into full communion with the Church. It is aimed at adults and candidates are gradually introduced to aspects of Catholic beliefs and practices. The process is also used for those Catholic and non-Catholics who want to learn more about the Catholic faith as well as baptised Catholics who have not been confirmed and are seeking confirmation.
The course runs for a year, every Monday night (apart from holidays), culminating in the Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday night.
If you would like to learn more about the Catholic faith or enquire about becoming a Catholic, please contact the parish office or Gill Greenwood for further details.
